Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Speech of Hon. Thomas L. Clingman, of North Carolina, on the Resolutions Reported by the Select Committee to Investigate the Alleged Assault Upon Senator Sumner by Mr. Brooks: Delivered in the House of Representatives July 9, 1856
Such a speech, so delivered, was quietly listened to by the Senate, out of respect for one of the. States, which he claimed to represent. I may well say that the Senate then exhibited the greatest regard for liberty of speech that it is possible to conceive.
